UNTERBERGER, IGNAZ, born at Cavalese
in 1748, died in Vienna, Dec. 4, 1797.
German school; history and genre painter,
brother and, in Rome, pupil of Christoph
Unterberger, having at first been instructed
by his uncle Franz in his native place. In
Rome he was benefited by intercourse with
Mengs, Battoni, Maron, and others, but
was especially influenced by the works of
Correggio, whose style he imitated so successfully
that some of his copies were taken
for originals, even by competent judges, and
sold as such by art dealers. In 1776 he
returned home, and thence went to Vienna,
where his exhibited works were well received
and he was made a member of the
Academy, and subsequently court painter.
In great favor with Prince Kaunitz, he
received numerous commissions both at
home and abroad. Works: Picture of Madonna
carried by Angels, Italian Church,
